If anyone can with this i am at a total block here.. Here's my problem... Ok, first i followed step by step tut on "Install Snow Leopard 10.6 on AMD PC Hackintosh" Then the chameleon rc3 bootloader loads up and i hit enter on the "Snow"…

“ok for some odd reason i got snow to work…lol i did a fresh install and i noticed my smbios.plist need to be SMBios.plist no idea why but i guess that fixed the install. But my internet(snow isnt even finding a ethernet port) and audio isnt…”

“does anyone think i can use snow leopard universal v3.5. Would that work better for me. Or if it makes a difference should i try the usb install...”

“plus im trying to figure out what all kext i need. heres my mobo and specs page. http://usa.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=szSFtrap7crpBaQE&content=specifications”

“Got a new panic.. I reinstalled 10.6 and this time i got the dsdt.aml file from the patch and edited it. I might need to do more editing thou, but all i did so far is edit the length to 02 and it was 04 before. and now i get this panic. whe…”

“No, I don't have a dsdt.aml file. Were can I get one? Do i need one specifically for my setup? and how i remake it? and i have the dsdt patch program.”

“I still been messin around with this and still no luck.i removed the openhaltrestart.kext from Extra/Extensions and that got rid of the problem when i typed in -v. Now I still get the "Failed to load extensions com.apple.driver.AppleACPIPla…”

“Ok i will try that. Do they ave any distros like ipc 10.5.6 for anow leopard because when i installed 10.5.6 and chose all my drivers i had no problems installing it.. Im still messin around trying to get snow leopard to work:( lol”

“do i need any more kext? im sorry if im dumb..lol im still learning this whole mac thing..”

“ok i used osx tools and installed the kernel i got from spalek83's link and this is what i got wen i booted up::”

“I deleted what was on the Snow drive and copied and paste the new mach_kernel”

“ok This is what i did.. Copied the mach_kernel into / renamed it mach_kernel.voodoo changed the apple.boot.plist to mach_kernel.voodoo changed smbios to mach_kernel.voodoo then booted using mach_kernel.voodoo this is what i got… should i us…”

“no i am using the mach_kernel.test7 do i need to use that kernel in the link. if so is there any special install instructions like changing the name or the apple.boot.plist file?”

“ok i put the AppleNForceATA.kext in the /System/Extensions folder and when i reboot and load up snow this is what i get: (-v mode) (i just pressed enter) So it's some sort of panic…”

“I think that might be the prob. i'll take a look when i get home but im sure i dont have that in there. i thought you add all the kext in extra/extensions?”

“Ok I have pics of the error when i go to -v mode. first 2 pics are the top half and bottom half of my errors and the 3rd pic is when i have to clear the cmos. top: bottom: after clearing cmos: (im not sure if this will help with anything..)…”

“one more thing. In order for me to reboot and get back to xp, 10.5.6 leopard, etc.. I have to reset my board by taking out the battery.. lol I'm not sure whats going on.. This is only when i reboot after i get that error from the pic i last…”

“There is nothing on the screen thats point out whats wrong with it. It just has this pic---------> this is a sample off google pics not on my pc.. Unless if i wait for a while and something might show up because the circle thing still spins…”

“Any clue what I need to do?”
